A SAILORS APPETITE.
He Eats Without Paying, and
Thrashes the Man Who Fed
Him,

Albert Clough got off three-master
Wednesday morning that was 127 days
ont
The salt water that he had been smiling
all those days had given him a ravenous
appetite.
Four months on salt-horse and hard
tack had nerved him to any adventure.
He looked in at a waterfront restau-
rant, and read 'sHam and Eggs, 25 Cents -
There came dangerous light into his
eyes
Strawberries and Cream, 10 Cents"
His lips began to smack, and his legs
carried him inside.
'sWhat will yon have?" asked the
waiter.
"Ham and eggs. and lots of them; strw-
berries and cream, and buster of cherry
pie; and if you've got any plum-duff bring
her along
His bill amounted to four ':bits,' and he
carried the check up to the counter.
"Just please hold on to that till Tn paid
off, and I'll come and redeem it, he said,
handing the cashier his check
The restaurant man hurriedly ran around
the counter and siezed the sailor hat.
Clough felt that his veracity was being
doubted, and he let the cashier feel the
weight of his hand casually.
The latter fell back into seat, and
Clough walked outside to fall into the
hands of hdrbor policeman.

J. B. BARTON OF STOCKTON

to us as an agent, and accepted that posi-
ton last January. He has collected various
sums and at different periods promised to
remit the same, but failed to do so. Re-
Gently gentleman who was folm -rly con-
nected with this Office, visited Stockton on
business, and armed with an authority, re-
faested Barton 70 e ante up, which ne
promised to do on the following morning
Our friend was leaving that morning and
Barton knowing this avoided him.
This Barton is low, disreputable and
thoroughly unreliable person. While we
warn the public in general against having
any dealings with him, We would request
our supporters in Stockton to remit amounts
due direct to this office until such time as
they see the appointment of another agent
announced in these columns.

THE ELECTRIC RAILROAD.
The Success of the System to be
Tested Next Week.

II is expected that an experimental car
will be put on the preparatory part of The
electric railroad on Folsom street, early next
week. The road Is being CONSTRUCTED by
the Telphsrage Electrical Railroad Com
rany under the Sneed-J enkins series sys-
tenn The cars will not differ materially
from those used on the Market street road,
except that there will be no roofs to the
dummies, and that the driver will manipu-
late an electric switch instead of lever.
1t is intended to place the engines and dy-
numos in position ON Folsom and Niue
teenth streets, as soon as the scheme is
found to be success. Copper conducting
wires will be run from the engine and
dynamos house to the terminus of the road
where they will be connected with the
electric conductors in the outgoing and in
coming conduits. In the center of the
dummy is an electric motor similar to o
dynamo, only somewhat smaller. This is
connected by belt and gear to the axles
of the wheels, thus communicating the
motion and reguiatin. the speed.

Mrs. Maloney's Tooth.

Mrs. Maloney is greatly troubled with
aching teeth, but has a mortal terror of
the deItist. Lately she suffered so Sc
vertly that she picked up courage and
went to the dentist to have the tooth
drawn. Entering the dentists waiting
room, she inquired anxiously of his assist
ant, ''Is the docther in?''
No He is cut
"Musha! But it's glad of that am
''But he is likely to be in again at any

UNHAPPY IRELAND.
Parnells Organ Urges Patience
and Denounces Retaliations.

The United Ireland, Parnell's organ, urges
tbe Irish people to further patience. 1t de-
nouuces those men who advocate retaliation
for the oppression of the Irish tenants, and
saws that such course would undo thA
work that Parnell has accomplished, and
the work to which Gladstone is irccting the
evening OF his life.
Parnell is right, ana this would undoubt-
edly be the best course to pursue, but in
the face of the cruelties daily perpetrate d
with the assistance of soldiers, police and
the crow-bar brigade, it must be cone ded
that it is no easy matter to calm the pas

A Futile Attempt at Boycotting


The VISDIcAToR is, and always was, the
friend of the people, firm exponant O.
truth, right, and justice, supporter OF the
weak and oppressed. If workipgmen have
mind to strike, let them do so, and
should they have genuine grievance, we
will act mp TO orr title aud yindieate the
same.
When it comes to boycotting, however,
system which. as we have previously re-
marked, is unnecessary in this Republic,
we refuse to endorse the movement.
As far as John Wieland's beer is concern
ed, we are inclined to do as Brother Choyn-
ski does, boycott it after it gets below the
belt.
Strenuous efforts have been made during
the past week to boycott Henry Borneman
(Henry's Place. l30 Fourth Street between
Howard and Mission Streets, on account of
"Honest John s" lager and steam beer still
being dispensed by that gentleman, but the
same has resulted in an utter failure.
The genial Henry is still to be seen deal
ing ont pleasantly with his beer, hot sau-
sasts, and st, aiming chowder to as many
customers as heretofore. Should spch
men as "Henry," who refuses to be incon-
venienced and suffer loss, be boycotted
to suit the unreascnabieness of few
strikers?

Of Massachusetts, There were no
black men found in the rebel prtSoDS,
when their doors were Jared open bv
the tramp Of the union soldiers. Those
men knew when they shouldered
their muskets that they would get no
quarter if they were captured. It
was fight TO the death, and fight the
noble fellows did.
They were the same troops under
the command Of the young and Is

he fell, was ordered to be buried
